As the chief elections officer of Ohio and a former judge, I was sickened by the U.S. Supreme Court’s actions in moving up an issue not even ripe for determination and pushing the conservative activist majority rule of the court on the American people. It’s such an irony that the ruling that stands to gravely hurt the American people is entitled, “Citizens United.” It’s clear that the purpose of the decision is to water down the collective power of living, breathing American “citizens united” such as we saw in President Obama’s unprecedented and precipitous election in 2008.

One of the most exciting things about the 2008 presidential election was the sea of new faces of all colors, nationalities, and backgrounds who had never before in their lifetimes been so excited about being part of the political process. I knew that in this next generation, many of these first-time campaign workers would become candidates themselves, changing the face of our elected officials at all levels to look and think more like the rest of us.
